A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a ￥100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students," Who would like this ￥100 bill?"The students began to put up their hands at once.

Then he said,"I am going to give this ￥100 to one of you,but first,let me do this."He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said," Who wants it now?" The hands went back into the air.

"Well," he said,"What if I do this?" and he dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled bill and said," Who still wants it?" Hands went back into the air.

"My friends," he said,"you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter (无论) what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value (价值). It was still worth ￥100!"

“I would almost rather see you dead.” Bobert S. Cassatt, a leading banker of Philadelphia, shouted when his twenty-year-old eldest daughter announced that she wanted to become an artist. In the 19th century, playing at drawing or painting on dishes was all right for a young lady, but serious work in art was not. And when the young lady's family racked among the best of Philadelphia's social families, such an idea could not even be considered.

That was how Mary Cassatt, born 1844, began her struggle as an artist. She did not tremble before her father's anger, she opposed him with courage and at last made him change his mind. Mary Cassatt gave up her social position and all thoughts of a thousand and a family, which in those times was unthinkable for a young lady. In the end, after long years of hard work and perseverance, she became America's most important woman artist and the internationally recognized leading woman painter of the time.

{TS} How did Mr Cassatt react when his daughter made her announcement?

A.He feared for her life.

B.He was very angry.

C.He nearly killed her.

D.He warned her.

52What in fact was Mr Cassatt's main reason in opposing his daughter's wish?A.Drawing and painting was simply unthinkable among ladies in those days.

B.He did not believe his daughter wanted to work seriously in art.

C.He believed an artist's life would be too hard for his daughter.

D.Ladies of good families simply did not become artists in those times.

53 What made Mary Cassatt's "struggle" to become a recognized artist especially hard?A.She was a woman.

B.Her father opposed her.

C.She had no social position.

D.She didn't come from an artist's family.

54What do we know about Mary Cassatt's marriage?A.Her marriage failed because she never gave a thought to her husband and family.

B.She never married because she did not want to be just a wife and mother.

C.After marriage she decided to give up her husband rather than her career.

D.She did not marry because for a lady of her social position to marry below her was unthinkable.

55What do we know about Robert Cassatt's character from the text?A.He was a cruel man.

C.He knew nothing about art.

Cut the Carbon Footprint  Everything you do leaves a "carbon footprint" (碳足迹). For example, when you travel in a taxi, the car gives off CO2 into the air. CO2 is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases make the earth become warm. To protect our environment, we need to leave less of a "carbon footprint". How big is your carbon footprint? To get an idea, take a look at the following numbers.

Living areas

TV sets and DVD players produce 723kg of CO2 a year.

If you turn them off when you're not using them, you can cut that number by 108kg.

Laundry room (洗衣房)

Drying clothes in a dryer produces a lot of CO2.

If you use your dryer five times per week, you produce 185kg of CO2 per year.

Dry your clothes in the sun instead.

Bathroom

If you take an eight-minute shower every day, you produce 616kg of CO2 a year.

If you only use six minutes to take a shower, you can cut that number by 154kg a year.
